Description
|
|
+++++++++++
|
|
|
|
I'll go a bit more into detail explaining :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer`, because it doesn't look like a powerful interface at first sight. But: Every :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` is an :ocv:class:`Algorithm`, so you can easily get/set all model internals (if allowed by the implementation). :ocv:class:`Algorithm` is a relatively new OpenCV concept, which is available since the 2.4 release. I suggest you take a look at its description.
|
|
|
|
:ocv:class:`Algorithm` provides the following features for all derived classes:
|
|
|
|
* So called “virtual constructor”. That is, each Algorithm derivative is registered at program start and you can get the list of registered algorithms and create instance of a particular algorithm by its name (see :ocv:func:`Algorithm::create`). If you plan to add your own algorithms, it is good practice to add a unique prefix to your algorithms to distinguish them from other algorithms.
|
|
|
|
* Setting/Retrieving algorithm parameters by name. If you used video capturing functionality from OpenCV highgui module, you are probably familar with :ocv:cfunc:`cvSetCaptureProperty`, :ocv:cfunc:`cvGetCaptureProperty`, :ocv:func:`VideoCapture::set` and :ocv:func:`VideoCapture::get`. :ocv:class:`Algorithm` provides similar method where instead of integer id's you specify the parameter names as text Strings. See :ocv:func:`Algorithm::set` and :ocv:func:`Algorithm::get` for details.
|
|
|
|
* Reading and writing parameters from/to XML or YAML files. Every Algorithm derivative can store all its parameters and then read them back. There is no need to re-implement it each time.
|
|
|
|
Moreover every :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` supports the:
|
|
|
|
* **Training** of a :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` with :ocv:func:`FaceRecognizer::train` on a given set of images (your face database!).
|
|
|
|
* **Prediction** of a given sample image, that means a face. The image is given as a :ocv:class:`Mat`.
|
|
|
|
* **Loading/Saving** the model state from/to a given XML or YAML.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: When using the FaceRecognizer interface in combination with Python, please stick to Python 2. Some underlying scripts like create_csv will not work in other versions, like Python 3.

|
|
Setting the Thresholds
|
|
+++++++++++++++++++++++
|
|
|
|
Sometimes you run into the situation, when you want to apply a threshold on the prediction. A common scenario in face recognition is to tell, wether a face belongs to the training dataset or if it is unknown. You might wonder, why there's no public API in :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` to set the threshold for the prediction, but rest assured: It's supported. It just means there's no generic way in an abstract class to provide an interface for setting/getting the thresholds of *every possible* :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` algorithm. The appropriate place to set the thresholds is in the constructor of the specific :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` and since every :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` is a :ocv:class:`Algorithm` (see above), you can get/set the thresholds at runtime!
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of setting a threshold for the Eigenfaces method, when creating the model:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// Let's say we want to keep 10 Eigenfaces and have a threshold value of 10.0
|
|
int num_components = 10;
|
|
double threshold = 10.0;
|
|
// Then if you want to have a cv::FaceRecognizer with a confidence threshold,
|
|
// create the concrete implementation with the appropiate parameters:
|
|
Ptr<FaceRecognizer> model = createEigenFaceRecognizer(num_components, threshold);
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it's impossible to train the model, just to experiment with threshold values. Thanks to :ocv:class:`Algorithm` it's possible to set internal model thresholds during runtime. Let's see how we would set/get the prediction for the Eigenface model, we've created above:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// The following line reads the threshold from the Eigenfaces model:
|
|
double current_threshold = model->getDouble("threshold");
|
|
// And this line sets the threshold to 0.0:
|
|
model->set("threshold", 0.0);
|
|
|
|
If you've set the threshold to ``0.0`` as we did above, then:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
//
|
|
Mat img = imread("person1/3.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);
|
|
// Get a prediction from the model. Note: We've set a threshold of 0.0 above,
|
|
// since the distance is almost always larger than 0.0, you'll get -1 as
|
|
// label, which indicates, this face is unknown
|
|
int predicted_label = model->predict(img);
|
|
// ...
|
|
|
|
is going to yield ``-1`` as predicted label, which states this face is unknown.
|
|
|
|
Getting the name of a FaceRecognizer
|
|
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
|
|
|
Since every :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` is a :ocv:class:`Algorithm`, you can use :ocv:func:`Algorithm::name` to get the name of a :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer`:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// Create a FaceRecognizer:
|
|
Ptr<FaceRecognizer> model = createEigenFaceRecognizer();
|
|
// And here's how to get its name:
|
|
String name = model->name();
|
|
|
|
|
|
FaceRecognizer::train
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Trains a FaceRecognizer with given data and associated labels.
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::train( InputArrayOfArrays src, InputArray labels ) = 0
|
|
|
|
:param src: The training images, that means the faces you want to learn. The data has to be given as a ``vector<Mat>``.
|
|
|
|
:param labels: The labels corresponding to the images have to be given either as a ``vector<int>`` or a
|
|
|
|
The following source code snippet shows you how to learn a Fisherfaces model on a given set of images. The images are read with :ocv:func:`imread` and pushed into a ``std::vector<Mat>``. The labels of each image are stored within a ``std::vector<int>`` (you could also use a :ocv:class:`Mat` of type `CV_32SC1`). Think of the label as the subject (the person) this image belongs to, so same subjects (persons) should have the same label. For the available :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` you don't have to pay any attention to the order of the labels, just make sure same persons have the same label:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// holds images and labels
|
|
vector<Mat> images;
|
|
vector<int> labels;
|
|
// images for first person
|
|
images.push_back(imread("person0/0.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE)); labels.push_back(0);
|
|
images.push_back(imread("person0/1.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE)); labels.push_back(0);
|
|
images.push_back(imread("person0/2.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE)); labels.push_back(0);
|
|
// images for second person
|
|
images.push_back(imread("person1/0.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE)); labels.push_back(1);
|
|
images.push_back(imread("person1/1.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE)); labels.push_back(1);
|
|
images.push_back(imread("person1/2.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE)); labels.push_back(1);
|
|
|
|
Now that you have read some images, we can create a new :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer`. In this example I'll create a Fisherfaces model and decide to keep all of the possible Fisherfaces:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// Create a new Fisherfaces model and retain all available Fisherfaces,
|
|
// this is the most common usage of this specific FaceRecognizer:
|
|
//
|
|
Ptr<FaceRecognizer> model = createFisherFaceRecognizer();
|
|
|
|
And finally train it on the given dataset (the face images and labels):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// This is the common interface to train all of the available cv::FaceRecognizer
|
|
// implementations:
|
|
//
|
|
model->train(images, labels);
|
|
|
|
FaceRecognizer::update
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Updates a FaceRecognizer with given data and associated labels.
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::update( InputArrayOfArrays src, InputArray labels )
|
|
|
|
:param src: The training images, that means the faces you want to learn. The data has to be given as a ``vector<Mat>``.
|
|
|
|
:param labels: The labels corresponding to the images have to be given either as a ``vector<int>`` or a
|
|
|
|
This method updates a (probably trained) :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer`, but only if the algorithm supports it. The Local Binary Patterns Histograms (LBPH) recognizer (see :ocv:func:`createLBPHFaceRecognizer`) can be updated. For the Eigenfaces and Fisherfaces method, this is algorithmically not possible and you have to re-estimate the model with :ocv:func:`FaceRecognizer::train`. In any case, a call to train empties the existing model and learns a new model, while update does not delete any model data.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// Create a new LBPH model (it can be updated) and use the default parameters,
|
|
// this is the most common usage of this specific FaceRecognizer:
|
|
//
|
|
Ptr<FaceRecognizer> model = createLBPHFaceRecognizer();
|
|
// This is the common interface to train all of the available cv::FaceRecognizer
|
|
// implementations:
|
|
//
|
|
model->train(images, labels);
|
|
// Some containers to hold new image:
|
|
vector<Mat> newImages;
|
|
vector<int> newLabels;
|
|
// You should add some images to the containers:
|
|
//
|
|
// ...
|
|
//
|
|
// Now updating the model is as easy as calling:
|
|
model->update(newImages,newLabels);
|
|
// This will preserve the old model data and extend the existing model
|
|
// with the new features extracted from newImages!
|
|
|
|
Calling update on an Eigenfaces model (see :ocv:func:`createEigenFaceRecognizer`), which doesn't support updating, will throw an error similar to:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
OpenCV Error: The function/feature is not implemented (This FaceRecognizer (FaceRecognizer.Eigenfaces) does not support updating, you have to use FaceRecognizer::train to update it.) in update, file /home/philipp/git/opencv/modules/contrib/src/facerec.cpp, line 305
|
|
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception'
|
|
|
|
Please note: The :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` does not store your training images, because this would be very memory intense and it's not the responsibility of te :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` to do so. The caller is responsible for maintaining the dataset, he want to work with.
|
|
|
|
FaceRecognizer::predict
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: int FaceRecognizer::predict( InputArray src ) const = 0
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::predict( InputArray src, int & label, double & confidence ) const = 0
|
|
|
|
Predicts a label and associated confidence (e.g. distance) for a given input image.
|
|
|
|
:param src: Sample image to get a prediction from.
|
|
:param label: The predicted label for the given image.
|
|
:param confidence: Associated confidence (e.g. distance) for the predicted label.
|
|
|
|
The suffix ``const`` means that prediction does not affect the internal model
|
|
state, so the method can be safely called from within different threads.
|
|
|
|
The following example shows how to get a prediction from a trained model:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
using namespace cv;
|
|
// Do your initialization here (create the cv::FaceRecognizer model) ...
|
|
// ...
|
|
// Read in a sample image:
|
|
Mat img = imread("person1/3.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);
|
|
// And get a prediction from the cv::FaceRecognizer:
|
|
int predicted = model->predict(img);
|
|
|
|
Or to get a prediction and the associated confidence (e.g. distance):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
using namespace cv;
|
|
// Do your initialization here (create the cv::FaceRecognizer model) ...
|
|
// ...
|
|
Mat img = imread("person1/3.jpg", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);
|
|
// Some variables for the predicted label and associated confidence (e.g. distance):
|
|
int predicted_label = -1;
|
|
double predicted_confidence = 0.0;
|
|
// Get the prediction and associated confidence from the model
|
|
model->predict(img, predicted_label, predicted_confidence);
|
|
|
|
FaceRecognizer::save
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Saves a :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` and its model state.
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::save(const String& filename) const
|
|
|
|
Saves this model to a given filename, either as XML or YAML.
|
|
|
|
:param filename: The filename to store this :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` to (either XML/YAML).
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::save(FileStorage& fs) const
|
|
|
|
Saves this model to a given :ocv:class:`FileStorage`.
|
|
|
|
:param fs: The :ocv:class:`FileStorage` to store this :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Every :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` overwrites ``FaceRecognizer::save(FileStorage& fs)``
|
|
to save the internal model state. ``FaceRecognizer::save(const String& filename)`` saves
|
|
the state of a model to the given filename.
|
|
|
|
The suffix ``const`` means that prediction does not affect the internal model
|
|
state, so the method can be safely called from within different threads.
|
|
|
|
FaceRecognizer::load
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Loads a :ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` and its model state.
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::load( const String& filename )
|
|
.. ocv:function:: void FaceRecognizer::load( const FileStorage& fs ) = 0
|
|
|
|
Loads a persisted model and state from a given XML or YAML file . Every
|
|
:ocv:class:`FaceRecognizer` has to overwrite ``FaceRecognizer::load(FileStorage& fs)``
|
|
to enable loading the model state. ``FaceRecognizer::load(FileStorage& fs)`` in
|
|
turn gets called by ``FaceRecognizer::load(const String& filename)``, to ease
|
|
saving a model.
|
|
|
|
createEigenFaceRecognizer
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<FaceRecognizer> createEigenFaceRecognizer(int num_components = 0, double threshold = DBL_MAX)
|
|
|
|
:param num_components: The number of components (read: Eigenfaces) kept for this Prinicpal Component Analysis. As a hint: There's no rule how many components (read: Eigenfaces) should be kept for good reconstruction capabilities. It is based on your input data, so experiment with the number. Keeping 80 components should almost always be sufficient.
|
|
|
|
:param threshold: The threshold applied in the prediciton.
|
